Usage

const { Aki } = require('aki-api');

const region = 'en';

const aki = new Aki(region);

await aki.start();

console.log('question:', aki.question);
console.log('answers: ', aki.answers);

Output from above console.log

question: Is your character real?
answers: [  
  "Yes",
  "No",
  "Don't know",
  "Probably",
  "Probably not"
]

Get regions that I support

  const { regions } = require('aki-api');
  
  console.log(regions);

Answer a Question (step)

const { Aki } = require('aki-api');

const region = 'en';
const aki = new Aki(region);

await aki.start();

const myAnswer = 0; // yes = 0

await aki.step(myAnswer);

console.log('question:', aki.question);
console.log('answers:', aki.answers);
console.log('progress:', aki.progress);

Win/Show the akinator's guess

To determine a win use the progress property. I like to do something like if(aki.progress >= 70) or check the current step against the max of 80

const { Aki } = require('aki-api');

const region = 'en';
const aki = new Aki(region);

await aki.start();

const myAnswer = 0; // yes = 0

await aki.step(myAnswer);

if (aki.progress >= 70 || aki.currentStep >= 78) {
  await aki.win();
  console.log('firstGuess:', aki.answers);
  console.log('guessCount:', aki.guessCount);
}

Enable child mode

Simply pass in true or false for the 2nd parameter in the constructor.

const { Aki } = require('aki-api');

const region = 'en';
const childMode = true;
const aki = new Aki(region, childMode);

await aki.start();

const myAnswer = 0; // yes = 0

await aki.step(myAnswer);

if (aki.progress >= 70 || aki.currentStep >= 78) {
  await aki.win();
  console.log('firstGuess:', aki.answers);
  console.log('guessCount:', aki.guessCount);
}

Output from above console.log

await aki.start();

const myAnswer = 1; // no = 1

await aki.step(myAnswer);
await aki.back();

console.log('question:', aki.question);
console.log('answers:', aki.answers);
